California updated its plans Friday to allow outdoor events at stadiums, ball fields and theme parks to begin reopening on April 1.
Sports facilities and theme parks will reopen with reduced capacity, subject to county infection rates. The California Department of Public Health released a file A Blueprint for a Safer Economy The guidelines last August, which have imposed the opening and closing of county-wide businesses ever since.
For counties in the state’s most restrictive purple tier, outdoor sports and live performances will be limited to 100 people or less and attendees must live in the area. Reservations will be required and franchise sales will not be available, a CDPH statement She said. Maximum attendance is 20% in Tier Red and 33% in Orange, both of which can welcome visitors within the country.
A similar standard will apply to theme parks. Places in the red layer could reopen at 15% capacity, but more guests in the state would be allowed to visit as infection rates decreased, according to the CDPH. Masks will still be required to attend.
“ With dramatically reduced case and hospitalization rates, the arrival of three highly effective vaccines and targeted efforts aimed at immunizing the most vulnerable communities, the state of California can gradually and safely begin to restart more activities, particularly those that occur outdoors and where consistent concealment is possible. “Even with these changes, California maintains some of the strongest public health protocols in the country,” said Mark Galley, secretary of the California Health and Human Services Agency.
As of now, 87% of California residentsAbout 35 million people fall within the state’s purple tier, as are many of the state’s major theme parks. Disneyland Resort, California Adventure, Notts Berry Farm, Six Flags Magic Mountain, SeaWorld and Universal Studios Hollywood are located in the Southern California Purple Tier counties.
However, cases in Los Angeles County, the state’s most populous area, have been on a downward trend since it peaked in early January. The county could enter the red level next week, CDPH But he must stay there for two weeks before easing restrictions.
